"You will break, eventually."
– Chapter Master Galedan

The chance to determine the 5th collectable warlord of the Defenders of Caliban is here! If the loyalists claim victory, Vassago, agent of the Mystai, will be added to the game. If the traitors force their way to glory, then Chapter Master Galedan will join the Defenders of Caliban roster.

Every player victory in the event contributes points towards the faction of the warlord they are playing. Choose your side and help determine the fate of the game!

As usual, the top 10 lodges will also receive the winning Warlord as part of their reward crates. Fight to make your lodge stand amongst the greatest!

Be seated.

Cadets, Happy Holidays! Yes, it’s that time again but before we head off on our breaks, we at Noobz from Poland and 505 Games wanted to share an update with you on both Total Tank Simulator and Total Tank Generals.

As we’re beginning to finish up Total Tank Generals, we reflect on the year that has been and we’re extremely happy to have such a passionate community behind us – without you, we wouldn’t be doing any of this.

The year certainly hasn’t been without its challenges. Since the release of the Italy DLC, our communications have been sporadic. James joined us, and immediately started to gather all your feedback and suggestions for our future projects – and it’s thanks to you that we have an update coming to Total Tank Simulator.

-


In August, we announced that Total Tank Simulator would be getting a free update. Believe it or not, this was quite a new endeavour. After analysing all your comments and suggestions, while we announced Total Tank Generals, we wanted to give something back to the community and we feel the Japan update will do that.

We’ll be announcing the specifics of the Japan update in the new year, but before we do, we wanted to share with you where you’ll be battling...

Act.1 - Soviet Invasion of Sakhalin and Kuril Islands, August 1945

Act. 2 – Operation Downfall. The American invasion of Japanese Islands, November 1945

Both acts will see a variety of gameplay modes to test your skills in the new region and with brand-new units, models and maps.


Infantry


Torii Gate

We can’t wait for you to get your hands on it, and we’ll have more info to share soon!

-


Launching next year, the brand-new WW2 turn-based strategy wargame - a tribute to our favourite games – is perfect for tactical and history fans alike.

We’ve taken everything that we’ve learned from developing Total Tank Simulator and improved it exponentially. We love playing these games too, so we know how much detail is needed to make the game fun and engaging – something we’ve focussed on while moving through the milestones.

As mentioned above, we wanted to provide a more detailed look at your units; not only giving you top-line stats such as health, ammo and resources – but also their morale and their historic details. These aren’t just chess pieces that you’ll be battling, these units represent real soldiers who lived through history.







In Total Tank Generals, we’ll be exploring the WW2 journeys of some of history's most infamous generals; Erwin Rommel, Georgy Zhukov and George S Patton


George S. Patton (US)


Erwin Rommel (Germany)


Georgy Zhukov (Soviet Union)

In 2022, we heard you loud and clear, in 2023 we’re acting on it - Introducing, THE WAR ROOM.

THE WAR ROOM will be a monthly community series, hosted by James (505 Games) with some special guests joining us from time to time. We’ll be giving you updates on your favourite games, sharing what's new, what’s to come, what hasn’t worked and how we’ll address this.

We’ll also be providing a spot for you - the community. Showcasing highlights, hot topics and more importantly your cool stuff. If you’re a creator who specialises in wargaming, or history then we want to know!

The first episode of THE WAR ROOM will drop in January.

Until then, have a great holiday break and we’ll see you in 2023.

That’s all.

Post-war uniforms, a total rehashing of crew voice-overs, as well as a new pack of WWII AI aircraft carriers for air battle modes! Only good news is coming from the sea in the Apex Predators update!

We are pleased to announce new post-war uniforms for the naval crews in all gaming nations. The crews of the later ships and boats in open gun mounts, decks and bridges, as well as those in the rangefinder stations will now have authentic Cold war era uniforms and differs from WWII ships crews.




The loudest improvement in the Apex Predators update is the completely reworked voices of fleet officers and crews during a battle. Orders from the captain, reporting of gun crews and ship damage reports are now heard like never before! The more intense the action is, the louder and more emotional the crew reports. At the beginning of the battle, the reports are short and concentrated, when the enemy appears and the first volleys of guns are made, the reports become louder and more intense, and the first hits on a player’s ship unleash tidal waves of ​​adrenaline!

Every nation speaks its own language with certain emotional features. However we can hardly describe those bright and emotional shouts of, for example, an Italian battleship crew, when amidst the battle - you’d better hear it yourself! By the way, you will be able to control the volume of the crew reports, or even mute them in the sound options.




Some time ago, we presented new AI carriers for Cold War era aircraft. This time we prepared new models for WWII carriers of different nations that will be added to the game in the upcoming Apex Predators update. Please meet IJN Shokaku, HMS Illustrious of the Royal Navy, American USS Lexington, USS Saratoga and a true legend, USS Enterprise. These AI aircraft carriers will act as naval airfields in the aircraft gaming modes of different ranks. Welcome aboard, pilots!
